I think the main thing is just to keep reminding yourself to push yourself outside of your comfort zone and you will find ways to do so. Then, as you get better, it becomes easier to do so and turns into a positive feedback loop

This is also another way to ground yourself--having something you are familiar with in an unfamiliar setting

Yes! Every different situation has a different trigger.

🌐 Makes me think back to the procrastination lesson

I don't think this applies to me, so I can feel free to busy myself more

Though sometimes the body and mind holds irrational fear about something. There is nothing that is of danger, but the mind perceives it as a danger

habituation

This highlights another important aspect -- you need to go back to the things and "update" your fears to show that you've overcome it.

This is like gradually stretching your muscles so they become more flexible

main topic

And be grateful :D

It's a habit...

I want to highlight this part because this addresses what i think comparing is for--setting a baseline or knowing where you are. But where you are compared to other people doesn't change how you should do things! If you really want to do something, then you just look forward and see how you can get better. There doesn't have to be an impact for other people to be better or worse than you--you just keep doing your own thing.

This is true! You shouldn't be basign your self-esteem, or worse, self-worth on where you are compared to other people. While I think it's good to know where you are relative to other people (bc when you are better at a skill than others, you can use that as an advantage), it's also important to remain humble. I always remind myself that anyone can become as good as or even better than you--it's just a matter of time and effort. (This applies to you too!)

I agree. I think that there is some sort of function of comparing with others so you can gauge where you are. This is especially important if I think back to how we used to lived in smaller groups and so we must continuously strive to be of value

Okay but once again the Bible relies on God. But if you aren't convinced in what the Bible says then how can you believe in God...?

Not only does the bible do this, but okay. This is a valid point

That part is true... But if the bible is "God's word," but it's the bible that says God exists, then is it not just the same source citing itself?

personal advice:

banks are probably the most steady for RESPs

dw ab this

dont worry ab this

investment vehicle -- your choice on where to invest

because harper was prime minister (economist) and wanted ppl to save more

but trudeau came in and :(

unlike RRSP (which taxes you heavily)

after-tax money

and you can have as many accounts as you want (as long as limit isn't reached)

be sure to know how to calculate this

Ex.Your income is 100k (You can contribute 18%) Year 1 18k Year 2 9k Year 3 (9k from Year 2 + 18k from Year 3 = total of 27k)

note that this calculator doesn't take into account inflation AND tax dollars

what if you invest in your own company in order to get all the money from the rrsp lol

RRSP are investment vehicles, not really investments (similar to TFSAs)

good for stability

know how much you can contribute for these and what these plans are called

within 15 years

not important

if you are rich down the line, then you will get taxed heavily

if you have an income of 100k, then by contributing 18% of your income (18k), then you will get a tax refund because your "new income" is now 82k

not taxed today, but taxed later

just listen to what he is saying and that is all that is on the test

you need to know how to calculate your contributions

notice of assessment - tells you your maximum contribution limit is

The measurement of identity or Indigenous status through appearance or blood quantum (statistics) -> erases the identity of Indigenous just because of statistics (with no consideration of other things like kinship or relationships)

Connection to HBS

The recruiters viewed the Indigenous as "savages" and "uncivilized", but it's kinda dumb because they are forced out into the foods cus it's unsafe, but now they are being called savagers for living out there

The example of her history was always only partly represented. The good things were shown, but the damage that was done was neglected, only shown in a paragraph in the epilogue.
